In the USA Roy Thompson was an insurance administration supervisor for medical negligence / liability claims (nice!). Unfortunately there were no such positions for Roy to spend his time and earn a crust in Bali. So after a while, Roy reinvented himself as a "Gallery Consultant", someone who would pretend to know stuff about stuff sold in art galleries, both from trying to make some marketing cash from gallery owners and also getting a commission from anything they sold when he introduced customers to them. In addition, Roy found a profitable business quietly and discretely supplying narcotics to other foreigners at Naughty Nuri's Warung.
Roy Thompson did not make much from being a gallery consultant, so he decided to get into sales of "artifacts" and "gem stones" via the Internet, particularly eBay where he was caughte red handed selling fake platinum. Roy would taken modern replica art made in Java and "age" it to look like it was antique. He would also take low cost semi-precious stones, put them in "brassed" metal jewelry and sell them on as valuable antiques. He once made the mistake of trying to do this through a well known gallery in Ubud and subsequently has been blacklisted by the entire Ubud gallery community.
Roy got lucky in that he was appointed to sell a good number of artifacts from the estate of deceased Dr. Maurius Van den Hout in Bali. Unfortunately Roy got caught out by The Australian Center for Anthropological Research adding a few of his own, more recent "aged" pieces into Van den Hout's collection, which he sold under that deceased gentleman's good name. The Van den Hout family have now taken back Maurius' collection from Roy Thompson.
Roy still peddles "artifacts" and "jewelry" a bit on the Internet where he can, but these days he relies increasingly on his drugs business. With an estimated 80% plus of foreign expats in Bali taking narcotics regularly, this is good business for Roy as expatriates know they can not trust Indonesian dealers.

Roy also supports and benefits from his wife Ni Nyoman Eri's business, she provides young women as "escorts" and as special masseuses; she has become known as "Ubud's Mama".
Roy's business address / contact information (aged jewelry / artifact and young lady escort's massuesses) is below. Please note: this is his published business address / phone number which he himself has published widely on various blogs and other sites (it is not my fault / legal issue if it is also his home address);
